| Houston police are investigating the fatal shooting of a man and the wounding of a juvenile female at 8048 Juliabora Street about 1:20 a.m. on Sunday (December 17).
The identity of the victim, 67, is pending verification by the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences.
HPD Homicide Division Detectives K. Fregia, B. Stephens, A Vinogradov and J. Diaz reported:
HPD patrol officers responded to a shooting at a residence at the above address and found the victim unresponsive in the living room. He had suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced deceased by responding Houston Fire Department paramedics. A female juvenile suffered a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to the leg and was transported by paramedics to an area hospital where she was treated and later released.
A preliminary investigation determined a large group of people were attending a birthday party and, at some point, several attendees got into a physical fight that escalated into a shooting and resulted in the two victims being shot.
Anyone with information in this case is urged to contact the HPD Homicide Division at 713-308-3600 or speak anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.
